Obs:

From the reference year 2025 onwards, a small controlled random uncertainty is introduced in all reported data. The uncertainty has been added to protect individuals so that no one risks being exposed in the statistics. As a result, the reported totals are not always equal to the sum of their reported components.

If reported statistical values are added together to create a new total, the uncertainty is also added. There is therefore a risk that the new total contains greater uncertainty than that which – under the method – would have been added to a single value.

The method used for disclosure control is called Cell Key Method (CKM). You can read more about the method here: Protection methods for disclosure control and here: Development of disclosure protection. Infant mortality is the number of deaths of children under one year of age per 1000 live births.
